So heres an interesting encounter I had with someone claiming to be a mmokings employee trying to buy an account. Since mmokings.com do have a rather good reputation I decided to find out more, but about 5 minute into the conversation I knew it was a scam ^^. Nonetheless I carried on and decided to toy with him. Heres the conversation below, enjoy!
-------------------------------
mmokings2 (3:28:05 PM): Hello! Is your account still for sale?
GL31986 (3:29:24 PM): yes
mmokings2 (3:29:21 PM): Can I ask a few questions?
GL31986 (3:30:11 PM): yup
mmokings2 (3:30:00 PM): Does it come with any honor/arena points? Does it come with any gold? What mounts does it have?
GL31986 (3:30:55 PM): Which account?
mmokings2 (3:30:52 PM): Hunter
GL31986 (3:32:04 PM): Hunter has Zulian Tiger land mount, Cenarion Hippogryph Epic Flying mount.
GL31986 (3:32:18 PM): Comes with 600g, 2k arena points, 10k honor
mmokings2 (3:31:45 PM): Are mounts epic or normal.
GL31986 (3:32:39 PM): epic obviously..
GL31986 (3:32:52 PM): they're both extremely rare mounts
mmokings2 (3:32:39 PM): Ok sir.
mmokings2 (3:32:45 PM): Please wait while I quote your account.
mmokings2 (3:34:02 PM): At this time we can offer $940.00 for your account. If you choose to accept this offer then you will need to have a PayPal account to receive the funds. You will also need Full Name on the account, Secret Question and Answer, access to Email on the account, Username, and Password. If you have CD-KEYS, $20.00 will be added on to your total. For our security we require all information before the funds are released into your PayPal. NOTE: We will ONLY use PayPal to pay for your World of Warcraft account.
GL31986 (3:35:53 PM): 940 Dollar sounds good but there are too many ways to scam people on paypal
GL31986 (3:36:01 PM): I dislike paypal as payment
mmokings2 (3:35:24 PM): We will ONLY use paypal sir. Sorry.
mmokings2 (3:35:36 PM): We are a trusted company, we have no reason to scma our custoemrs.
GL31986 (3:36:30 PM): What company is this
mmokings2 (3:36:08 PM): Mmokings. Go to Mmokings.com, I can send you a verification E-mail if you'de like.
mmokings2 (3:40:13 PM): Are you there?
GL31986 (3:41:21 PM): Im here. Im thinking abou it. I usually sell to people who pay first
GL31986 (3:41:46 PM): I just don't trust paypal. Its too easy for buyers to cancel funds.
mmokings2 (3:41:04 PM): We are a legitimate company. Again, if you'de like I can send you an E-mail.
GL31986 (3:42:55 PM): Im doing some background checks and reading feedback on your company
GL31986 (3:42:59 PM): Give me a few minute
mmokings2 (3:42:23 PM): Ok
mmokings2 (3:49:27 PM): Make sure to let me know when you're done.
GL31986 (3:51:31 PM): I might consider a paypal payment, however as a security precaution on my part. I will not provide my secret question answer until 1 month after our transaction. Is that acceptable?
mmokings2 (3:51:09 PM): I'm sorry sir, with your secret answer you can recall the account at any time.
mmokings2 (3:51:20 PM): We are legitimate and expect the same. Would you like a verification E-mail?
GL31986 (3:52:27 PM): No need for the email.
mmokings2 (3:51:59 PM): Let me remind you we are the ONLY fully-American WoW distribution company. All of our workers live in the United States.
GL31986 (3:53:33 PM): Well I don't have any insurance for 2 big reasons..:
GL31986 (3:54:16 PM): 1) How do I know you will pay me after I give you ALL my info?
2) Even if you do pay me, all it takes is 1 click from paypal for you to cancel your funds after 1 day.
GL31986 (3:54:51 PM): Let me apoligize ahead of time if I sound rude. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm being careful ^^
mmokings2 (3:54:33 PM): It's fine, it's only exepected...
GL31986 (3:55:25 PM): I've been scammed before via paypal. Which is why I dislike using paypal as a way to accept payments.
mmokings2 (3:55:33 PM): MMokings has a very good reputation among the WoW community. We farm hundreds of thousands of gold a day, we make plenty of money. We would never risk our reputation for $940
mmokings2 (3:56:20 PM): I apologize, I have to ask this again - would you like a confirmation E-mail?
GL31986 (3:57:26 PM): Whats you name? I'll contact you through your website
GL31986 (3:57:32 PM): via livechat
mmokings2 (3:57:25 PM): I'm not working Livechat ATM. Livechat only provides support for currency and powerleveling.
GL31986 (3:58:49 PM): Do you have access to your company's email?
mmokings2 (3:58:32 PM): I do.
GL31986 (3:59:27 PM): Or doyou have access to 712 256 6942 phone number?
mmokings2 (3:59:18 PM): Not me personally
GL31986 (4:00:12 PM): I will mail something to [email protected]
GL31986 (4:00:16 PM): can you confirm it?
mmokings2 (3:59:40 PM): It's send only. I can send you a customized message?
mmokings2 (3:59:54 PM): Tell me when to send, and I'll tack it onto the bottom of the E-mail.
GL31986 (4:01:28 PM): I need a way for you to verify that you truely are from mmokings. A confirmation email from you does not prove that
mmokings2 (4:01:13 PM): An e-mail from the official MMokings e-mail doesn't prove that?
GL31986 (4:03:23 PM): Fake email tags are very easy to do ^^
mmokings2 (4:02:49 PM): E-mail tags?
GL31986 (4:05:10 PM): I'm sorry unless you can confirm something I say via live chat on mmokings website OR confirm something I send to [email protected] OR confirm something I say on 712-256-6942
GL31986 (4:05:14 PM): I'm not risking it.
mmokings2 (4:04:58 PM): Ok then. All I can do for you is send an E-mail from the officia E-mail address.
mmokings2 (4:05:17 PM): Thanks anyways then. If you change your mind, be sure to contact us again.
GL31986 (4:08:10 PM): Tell me something
GL31986 (4:08:32 PM): Why is a company that does not sell account, interested in buying accounts? ^ ^
mmokings2 (4:08:15 PM): To farm gold on
GL31986 (4:09:30 PM): You would pay 940 dollars to farm gold?
mmokings2 (4:08:55 PM): All accounts eventually get banned, we constantly are buying new accoutns.
GL31986 (4:09:42 PM): I think there are better characters suited for that.
mmokings2 (4:09:12 PM): Farming 20 hours a day can make ALOT more than that after a while.
mmokings2 (4:10:55 PM): Anyways, business is picking up. Are you willing to sell the account?
GL31986 (4:14:20 PM): 1 moment.
GL31986 (4:16:38 PM): How did you get my Hunter info again?
mmokings2 (4:16:02 PM): Markeedragon
GL31986 (4:17:32 PM): Why is it that you would pay me 940 dollars for my account when my asking price on the site is 890?
mmokings2 (4:17:18 PM): We have a formula we use.
mmokings2 (4:17:39 PM): Honestly, we dont look at the thread much. We just get the AIM and get all the information we need from you personally.
GL31986 (4:18:57 PM): You know I found out you we're trying to scam me about 20 minutes ago? I just enjoyed wasting your time ^^
------This is when I insert a copy/paste the chat I had with a real mmokings employee via livechat on their site about 15 minutes ago-------------------------------
